In mathematics, an orientation on a real vector space is a choice of which ordered bases are "positively" oriented and which are "negatively" oriented. In the three-dimensional Euclidean space, the two possible basis orientations are called right-handed and left-handed (or right-chiral and left-chiral), respectively.

However, the choice of orientation is independent of the handedness or chirality of the bases (although right-handed bases are typically declared to be positively oriented, they may also be assigned a negative orientation).
